Hey, it's Major. Mark Strassman with CBS has been on the program a couple of times talking to us about the Artemis II mission.

Over the weekend, he conducted an interview with the entire crew. And it's so good, I just wanted to share it with you. Hope you enjoy.

Integrity, this is Mark Strassman with CBS News. How do you read me?

Mark, we have you loud and clear here in Integrity, 15 is Mark Straussman with CBS News. How do you read me?

Mark, we have you loud and clear here in Integrity,

155,000 autical miles away from Earth.

How do we sound?

You sound fantastic.

Congratulations and all your success so far.

And thank you for the amazing images

that you sent back from space. My first question,

I hope a couple of you will take a stab at. I mean, so many people on Earth are living this

moment through your experiences. So on a personal level, since leaving Earth's orbit, what have

you been most struck by and what has been the biggest surprise? I definitely think the thing that I have been most struck by was I'm going to steal Jeremy's answer right here, but on Transluner Injection Day,

Did that translator injection burn? We were just 100 miles up.

That is not, that's not anywhere near the height of the International Space Station. We were under the International Space Station. They were just screaming right above the clouds and that burn went off. And then just moments later, we look back and we're already 30,000 miles from Earth heading of the moon. Like blew us all away. You know, Mark, I think one of the things that it struck me, there's so many amazing and so
